Episode 8 The Barrel Tavern

After Qin Lun and the three escaped from the carriage shop, they quickly found a secluded corner and changed their outfits.

Hill and Rand had already made a few less noticeable civilian costumes before they could assist him in his actions, which came in handy. It's just that Qin Lun hasn't had time to clean it yet, and there is still a strange smell on his body.

They didn't know they were being bountied by the Ambory Church, but even if they did, they probably wouldn't care. They were originally wanted by the world~ felons in the Earth Federation, but now they are just a few mercenary guilds in different time and space, and a few murderers say that there is no pressure.

"Qin Lun, have you gained anything from staying in the underground secret room of the Ambori Church for so long?" Hill asked with a smile.

"Well, we've taken some of the sacrificial belongings of the goddess of the sea, which is enough for our next adventure." Qin Lun remembered something, took out the Mithril Staff from the storage space and threw it to Ciel, "By the way, there is also this thing...... See if you can use it. ”

This Mithril Scepter is a short staff with intricate and delicate demonic reliefs on its surface, shimmering mystically in the sunlight. The gemstone base at the top is a lifelike three-toed claw with a clear texture, which is a work of art.

"Magic wand? It seems that the quality is not low. Ciel played with the Mithril Scepter and unceremoniously put it into storage, "I'm going to study this thing, most of the staff of amplification elemental magic are of little use to me, only some staff with their own spell circle will come in handy." ”

"Ciel basically doesn't use a staff, he got a legendary magic book some time ago, and that's a good thing." Rand uncovered the shepherd's old bottom in one bite.

"Legendary Spellbook?" Qin Lun looked at the old god stick with interest.

"The magic on there is very limited, there is a gap between what you think, I can't use a lot of magic, it's just that the quality of the equipment is relatively high." Hill smiled bitterly and waved his hand, diverting the topic, "By the way, Qin Lun, we entered the world of Torrell with a token, and the Shattered Starry Sky didn't give a mission hint, do you have any clues after participating in those epic plots?" ”

Qin Lun thought about it, then frowned slightly and said, "When I first entered the Torel World in the spring of 1355 in the Valley Calendar, it took nearly two natural months from the Demon Grail King's Court to the Gate of Bodur. And now it's autumn, and the time and space point has moved back a few months, I'm afraid that the Sun Elf envoys have reached Yongju Island, and the epic plot of the Ancient Road has long been over.

As for the other two epic plots, the founding mission of the Silver Moon Alliance and the historical plot of the Silver Hall opened by the shield dwarves, the dwarven princes Lorraine and Emily Silverhand should have left Baldur's Gate. I'm afraid we need to go north, to the Silver Moon Alliance in the northern part of the continent, and even to the World Ridge Mountain Range in order to get back on the mission. ”

"We only have half a month, is it too late?" Rand asked worriedly.

"Silvermoon City is thousands of miles away from Baldur's Gate, and there are many dangerous areas to pass along the way, and half a month is definitely not enough." Qin Lun shook his head calmly, "However, the shattered starry sky has already reminded us that after receiving the new story mission, there is a certain chance that our stay time will increase, and before eating a big meal, we can fill our stomachs with some snacks!" ”

"Mercenary Guild!" Ciel and Rand glanced at each other and smiled understandingly, "No wonder apart from Qin Lun, we will be arranged by the Shattered Starry Sky to become human mercenaries. ”

(Note: The Mercenary Guild is different from the Mercenary Guild, the former is a pan-continental mercenary service organization, and the latter refers to a certain mercenary team.) )

"You two are not suitable to go to the mercenary union, although you didn't reveal your identity just now, but the size and ability characteristics have been learned by the Amberi church, the mercenary union has a lot of eyes, maybe there is an eyeliner of the church, let me go." Qin Lun looked at the two of them and said cautiously.

"It's okay, look!" Rand chuckled and pulled out two fleshy balls from the storage space.

"Flesh golem?!" Qin Lun's eyes lit up, this thing is almost one of ten thousand broken crystals, and it can change its image at will under the manipulation of the apostle, it can not only be used as a decoy for the body, but it can also be covered on the surface of the body to become an identity camouflage, but it basically has no lethality.

"Hehe, I learned this from you in the hunter world." Rand squeezed his eyes.

At the beginning, Qin Lun used the flesh puppet many times in the hunter world to get out of the crisis, and at the last moment, he used the flesh puppet to pretend to be Parker Norda and trap Xiao Di, a member of the Phantom Brigade, which impressed Rand deeply.

"Flesh puppets can't eliminate aura, but they can change body characteristics, and in such a chaotic environment just now, those people shouldn't be able to remember your aura, it's a good idea to hide your identity. Just remember not to use your signature skills if you get into trouble. Qin Lun thought about it, and then the three of them went to the mercenary union together at the same time.

"What about you, do you want to have one too?" Rand threw one of the flesh puppets to Hill and shook the other one in his hand at Qin Lun, he obviously had more than two flesh puppets ready.

"No!" Qin Lun smiled slightly, and took out the phantom leather suit from the collar to cover his face, this equipment was originally the swallowtail vest of the Grimm Hunter Black Queen Mira, and was later pulled out of the Rubik's Cube by Qin Lun.

The phantom skin squirmed and deformed like dough on Qin Lun's head, and the young man's handsome and unusual elven face gradually became ordinary and ordinary, and even his iconic pointed ears and silver hair were covered up, and he was replaced with short black hair.

The Wraith Leather Outfit is a dark gold quality with only one transformation ability. Of course, unlike flesh golems, which can only disguise creatures, it can transform into anything of any texture, and it also has combat transformations, which can be used as a cold weapon and a light shield.

"Hehe, I'm used to seeing your elf appearance, and I can't remember how shabby you looked." Rand teased with a chuckle.

"Is it that bad?" Qin Lun couldn't help but touch his face, his current face was his real self, although he was not handsome, he was not ugly, at most he was a little ordinary.

"I think it's better not to go to the mercenary union first." Hill took the flesh puppet in his hand, and suddenly frowned and said, "I suddenly thought of a problem, no matter how we change our heads, we are all unfamiliar outsiders to those three sects and nine streams of Baldur's Gate. If the Ambori Church wants to find us, it will start as outsiders. ”

"Indeed!" Rand and Qin Lun glanced at each other and fell into deep thought.

"Well, let's go to the Barrel Tavern first. At least the mercenaries there have met with us, and under normal circumstances, they don't pay special attention. Rand tried to say, "If we can't go to the mercenary guild to take on the adventure mission ourselves, we can also blend in with someone else's mercenary team." ”

"This is the Barrel Tavern?"

The Barrel Tavern is located on the south side of the docklands of Baldur's Gate, on the east side of a pub street.

It is a typical adventurer's tavern, with an umbrella-shaped roof and red porcelain tiles, and a masonry chimney on the main roof, divided into two levels, the upper floor for the guest rooms, the lower level for the tavern lobby, and perhaps a small wine cellar underground.

Push open the wooden door of the arched doorway and turn right through a short corridor after entering the house, which is designed to prevent cold winds from blowing into the lobby. For Baldur's Gate in Sword Bay, there is a humid sea breeze in all seasons, and it is quite cold in some seasons.

When Qin Lun and the three of them first entered Torrell, it was still noon, and after such a long toss, it was obvious that the sun had set in the west and had become dusk. The Barrel Tavern was noisy, and most of the customers were lower-middle-class people who came to drink and fart.

Mercenaries, sailors, dock coolies, there are no nobles here, they are all high-end consumption places in the inner city to drink.

The lobby is full of people, there is a large ash chandelier hanging on the roof, the indoor lights are bright, there are more than ten thick board tables and square stools, the room is directly behind a winter wooden bar seven or eight meters long, and some high wooden stools are placed in front, which is also full of people at this time.

To the left of the lobby was a large fireplace, and the crackling of firewood could be heard in the firelight. An iron fence was enclosed in front of the fireplace to prevent some drunkards from stumbling into it.

"Hey, over here, are the guests drinking, or are you staying?" While the three of them were observing the environment, a plump waitress came over to greet them with a smile.

"Find us a table to order, a glass of ale per person, and a plate of horned lamb and bacon." Rand pulled a dirty silver coin out of his pocket and flicked it with his fingers.

This is what gangsters he and Hill got from, and the gold coins that Qin Lun got from Ambery Church are too conspicuous to be taken out in such a place.

The waitress's eyes lit up, and she skillfully caught the silver coin and stuffed it into the pocket of her apron. For her, a silver coin was worth a tip for several days, and she immediately waved at the three of them with a smile, while habitually throwing a spring-like wink at Rand who gave her the silver coin.

The waitress led the three of them towards the tavern, and soon came to the front of a plan table, but there was already someone at this table.

An unkempt, ragged drunkard was sleeping on a wooden table, almost taking over the entire table. And he obviously hasn't cleaned up his body for many days, exuding a sour smell, comparable to Qin Lun half a day ago.

"Aaron, why hasn't this guy been thrown out yet, you don't want to do it, do you?" When the plump waitress saw the drunkard, she immediately raised her eyebrows and shouted at a male waiter at the back of the hall.

"Yes, big sister!" The young waiter, obviously a little scared of the waitress, whispered to another big-shouldered runner, and together set up the drunken drunkard, trying to drag him out.

"You ...... What are you doing......" The drunkard struggled impatiently, muttering fragmentary words in his mouth.

"Hey, wait!" Qin Lun, who had already walked to the table and sat down, suddenly frowned, the voice of this drunkard made him feel a little familiar.

Qin Lun stood up, walked up to the drunkard who was being held up by two male waiters, grabbed a piece of messy hair and made him raise his head.

"This guy seems to be ......" Seeing the drunkard's face clearly, Qin Lun couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, and suddenly smiled on the team channel, "It seems that the starry sky still attaches great importance to us, although there is no guide task, but it still gives us a clue to cut into a certain plot task." ”
